LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:GASOLINE, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
GMC SERRIA 2002. OUR TRUCK HAS RUST ON THE BUMPER BEHIND THE PAINTED COVER. THE DEALER SUGGESTED THIS IS NORMAL AND POLISHED IT, WITHIN ONE WEEK THE BUMPER SHOWED RUST AGAIN. THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS NOT LINED UP CORRECTLY, THE DEALER TRIED TO ADJUST IT, THE RESULT IS THE DOOR MUST BE SLAMMED TO CLOSE IT. THE MOTOR MAKES KNOCKING SOUNDS AT THE START AS IF IT HAS NO OIL. THE OIL HAS BEEN CHANGED EVERY THREE THOUSAND MILES. THE KNOCK STARTED AFTER THE TRUCK TURNED FOUR THOUSAND MILES. THE DEALER TOLD US THAT GM REPORTS THE KNOCK IS NORMAL. IT IS THE FIRST TIME I''VE HEARD OF A GAS MOTOR HAVING AN INTENTIONAL KNOCK. WE HAVE HAD THE TRUCK THIS SINCE IT WAS NEW AND HAVE HAD THE DEALER DO ALL THE REGULAR MAINTENANCE INCLUDING TIRE ROTATIONS AND OIL CHANGES.

TIRES
I AM THE OWNER OF A 2001 GMC (4-DOOR) EXTENDED CAB PICK UP (SHORT BED). THE TRUCK CAME EQUIPPED WITH GOODYEAR WRANGLER TIRES. THE DOT CODE FOR THE TIRES IS AS FOLLOWS: DOT M63D EKWR 4200 (TIRES 0715, 0801, 1131, 1132). THE TIRES HAVE APPROXIMATELY 18,500 MILES ON THEM. THEY HAVE BEEN REGULARLY SERVICED - AIR PRESSURE CHECKS AND ROTATION. THE SUBJECT TIRES HAVE VERY VERY POOR WET WEATHER TRACTION. I CONSIDERED THEM DANGEROUS SO THEY WERE REPLACED. IT SEEMS TO BE RATHER COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT THESE TIRES HAVE POOR WET TRACTION. I DRAW THIS CONCLUSION BY MY CONVERSATION WITH A GOODYEAR DEALER AND POSTINGS ON THE INTERNET AT TIRERACK.COM AND DISCOUNTTIRE.COM (WHERE PEOPLE COMMENT.) GM AND/OR GOODYEAR SHOULD CONSIDER HAVING BETTER WET WEATHER TRACTION FOR THE APPLICATION.

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE
WHILE DRIVING THE ABS LIGHT COME ON AND AND STAYED ON. I HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. THE NOISE CONTINUED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND IT WONT STOP. I PULL OUT THE ABS FUSE AND THE NOISE STOPED. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER AND HE SAID WHAT IT WAS. THE ABS CONTROL MODULE WAS SHORTED AND THE MOTOR WONT STOP. IT COST ME $900.00 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM AFTER I TALKED OUT THE SERVICE PERSON, I THINK THIS IS WAY TO EXPENSIVE AND TO SOON TO FAILED, FOR WHAT I HAVE FOUND OUT GMC NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS SYSTEM. RESPECTFULLY SUBMITED. JUAN PINEDO.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)
MY VEHICLE TAPS VERY LOUD WHEN I FIRST CRANK COLD ENGINE. DEALER SAYS THIS IS CARBON BUILD-UP BECAUSE OF NEW EMMISIONS REGULATIONS AND WONT HARM ENGINE. MY DEALER SAYS THEY CAN PERFORM A TREATMENT FOR APPROX. $100.00 THAT WILL CORRECT BUT NEEDS TO BE DONE EVERY 20000 MILES. MY VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER NEW CAR WARRANTY BUT THEY SAID THIS SERVICE IS NOT COVERED. I HAVE SEVERAL FRIEND EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEM. I FEEL THIS IS A DEFECT IN THE NEW GENERAL MOTORS ENGINE. THANKS
